I was in school in the 1950's and 1960's. Memphis TN. Awesome food cooked on site. Beef stew, puffy rolls, pies, cake, choice of chocolate or regular milk. In high school we had BBQ sandwiches with coleslaw and fries. Cinnamon buns with lots of icing. Coca Cola and other bottled beverages. We could even get sweetened iced tea. The list goes on and on. Miss those good meals. My mother grew up during the depression and that was another story. They could not afford school lunches (their mother was in the hospital with an infected arm for nearly a year (pre antibiotics). Their father couldn't find work. Mom talked about eating a handful of unshelled pecans one day. That's all they had for the day. Mom's grandmother came up from MS and saved the day for a while. She brought a lot of food she had canned and taught Mom how to cook efficiently. My dad grew up on a farm and had plenty to eat. He graduated in 1937. They carried their lunches in buckets with handles. Usually, a big biscuit, slice of meat and some beans.
I grew up in Memphis, then moved to MS. My mom has similar stories ❤ even in the 90s we still had barely anything to eat but it teaches you to be strong, humble and thankful
You guys should do a Mexican version of this video and include your momma dukes. It’d be cool to learn how the gastronomy changed throughout the years in Mexico.
I’m enjoying that you guys are doing different things you’re entertainment is what I’m looking for and the entertainment is what you’re giving me. Thanks fellas.
We slice spam thin and fry it up in the skillet in its own fat and eat it on bread with tomato and mayo, pretty good especially when you are struggling
For us, in the 90's, your school lunch was still a school lunch, but you could use credits or pay for Pizza Hut or Subway. We also had an open campus, so it was rare that we ate in the cafeteria. We had fresh pizza, deli, convenience stores, Burger King, Dairy Queen, and a grocery store within walking distance.
LOL I grew up in 70's and 80's school meals and we got nothing like what you guys got. Fridays for us was a burger with baked fries, canned fruit and maybe some pudding. Regular lunches were things like shake and bake chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, side of green beans and a piece of cake.
The school grilled cheese looks nothing like that lol. You should've had the baked grilled cheese where one side of the bread is basically uncooked and the other side burnt hard as a rock. 😂
Or get the uncrustables grilled cheese. My elementary school had those (2004) and I only had one in my entire life. It was equally the most amazing sandwich I’ve ever had to this day and the worst because the grease spilled ALL over my shirt that day and ruined it
Pasta salad at my school and salads and cookies yum. Jake you did magnificent in this vlog you even cooked I’m proud of you. You gave all the iconic moments with Brennan
I remember cafeteria food from the 80's and 90's. Some days were better then others, yeah to pizza, hamburger, chilli days. Was not a big fan of casserole, chicken nugget, spaghetti, or meatloaf days. Our only choice was milk but in highschool, I could purchase ala carte, so my lunch consisted of granola bar, cool ranch doritos and chocolate milk. Sometimes I would add a bannana or apple
Grew up in 2000s and 2010s in Canada so we had no school lunch program, so during elementary years parents had to make your lunches everyday. However, every last Friday of the month there was a fun lunch if your parents pre paid for it, which the first 2 years were KFC, McDonalds after that the rest of it was Pizza and veggies from Papa John's
In the early 80’s, in middle school we had a lot of processed foods like rectangular pizza But then in high school,84-88,they cooked everything fresh and we had bomb hot meals and we had a sandwich bar and a salad bar….but always only milk or chocolate milk…. And the funny thing was they were in the same building! 😂
Never had any McDonald’s or Pizza Hut Graduated in 97. No Gatorade but we had the option for iced tea. Pasta, pizza, nuggets, meatloaf for 12 years. We had taco day which was always exciting. I think chicken patties on a bun was available everyday for people who didn’t like what the main protein was. My school made homemade desserts though! Cookies, cakes, fudge. I don’t remember fruit unless u count jello!
Ok, spam is a fully cooked meat. It is best when fryed crispy on Sammy with mustard mmm. You can even do spam fried rice like they do in tropical islands, again, mmm.
Spam, fry up! Pork shoulder is the meat. My grandma lived during the Great Depression! She made us lots of meals from then. SOS, rice pudding and many other dishes!
I was in school in the late 60’s 70’s start of 80’s My school actually did on site lunch meals . Homemade pizza the size of your dinner plate . Ham bbq , sloppy Joe, Reuben sandwich, turkey over biscuits and mashed potatoes. There was so many great lunch school meals
My favorite was when my aunt who was one of the lunch ladies and she made the best hamburger gravy over amazing creamy mashed potatoes and buttery corn, it was soooooo good. It came with fruit and chocolate milk. 🔥
70s was definitely not the era of Disco, that was the last era of classic rock. 80s is when disco became prevalent! We didn’t have fast food for lunches in the 90s, best thing we had was the salad bar and the milkshakes they made guaranteed three weird hairs on top of each one 😂. 2000 I’m in high school, there was no more lunch, I’m outside with my friends the whole time waiting till we get home to eat something. 2010 I was outta college and a couple kids deep 😅. Love the video though, this was a great walk down memory lane for me! Thank you guys! PS Dasani is the worst, the amount of salt they add alone gives people heart burn. I’d go for tap over a bottle of Dasani.
2004-08 it was cheese sticks everyone got those. You could get double orders but last lunch use to get screwd and they would run low or out and could only get 1 order
OMG, if your mom and/or dad were around in the 1960's? LMAO I was eating school lunch in the 1960's....Yes, I am a senior citizen who really enjoys your videos!! I have to say I never had any good, what they called pizza or burgers...not even through the 1970's. Keep up the good work fellows!
I don’t remember my lunches being like that in the 80’s the pizza was a big rectangle and the chicken noddle day those were bomb with the mashed potatoes and gravy
Honestly during the 90s, we were eating apple sauce, burgers, pizza, corn dogs, bologna or ham sandwiches on white bread, Lunchables and tossed salad! Early 2000s, I was eating bagels, wraps, Bosco sticks and pizza puffs. Canned soups and grilled cheese were also popular. Hi C, kool aid, sunny d and capri sun for beverages.
Bro my school had its own sub bar, salad bar, fresh pizzas, burgers and hot dogs. We had wings, calzones, fresh fruit & veggies and before mrs Obama came in with her health craze we used to have a whole ass ice cream deep freezer and a slushy machine! I’m 26 now! I can’t imagine what they’ve added since then.
Love your guys videos super fun to watch, I suggest you all do A MRE video eat a bunch of different ones and rate best to worst. I'm in the Army and it would be super funny to see y'all's reaction.
when i was in high school we had a big variety a salad line, pizza chicken sandwiches chips ice cream and then the main line with different menu items everyday like spaghetti steak fingers nacho day
Brennen and Jake, I loved this video. We did not have a school cafeteria in elementary, but once a week, we'd have "Hot Dog Day", included a hot dog, Lays chips, a donut and orange flavored drink. It was not healthy, but we looked forward to it. You guys brought back some wonderful memories. Thanks
I grew up poor so i was raised on corned beef hash....i still eat it every now and then.....fry it up in a skillet and throw it on some light bread for a sandwich.....ohhhh yeahhhhh good eatin boys!
UK dinners (Yorkshire, Leeds, Sheffield, Bradford) growing up in the 2000s. Monday to Thursday Tuna sandwiches, beef rolls or cold pasta (all 3 slapped to be fair) Friday, sausage rolls, pizza rolls or of your choice were really quick, hot meat sandwiches. I miss being a kid. Love the idea of this video pal.
When I was in middle school in the 90s, we actually had pretty good lunches. We had salad bars, bagel sandwiches and that kind of stuff and really healthy options and then Fridays they would get Domino’s Pizza but 90 school lunches were not bad when I was in middle school. When I was in high school we had deli sandwiches pizzas, Bosco sticks cheeseburgers, all that kind of stuff be a smoothie bar in 00 I feel old class of 05 lol
Ranch was invented Around 1950, Steve Henson unknowingly made history when he whipped up a unique mixture of dry herbs and buttermilk. Originally a plumber, Steve came up with the concoction while working briefly in Anchorage as a construction worker and part-time cook for his crew. So with the pizza you could have used Ranch.....
I was born in 78, who remembers the milk pouches? They would come in a small clear pouch that you have to stab, and a lot of times it would go through to the other side. I remember everyone had to have the coolest lunch box in elementary school. When you got older and made it to a higher grade, you would have to bring your lunch in a paper bag. If you were still using your lunch box though, you would get picked on by everyone, especially if your mother wrote you a note on the inside saying she loved you, and to have a good day at school. How dare our parents love us back then!😄 We also never had the free meals like the kids have today. Nowadays, if your family isn't that well off, and you can't afford the lunches, then the school would supplie them for you. Back then, if your family couldn't afford your lunches, you were screwed, and didn't get any lunch! 😁 but one of the things I miss the most about school lunches, was trading all of the foods you didn't like with your friends. Friends today just aren't the same as they were back then. That's not in a bad way, it's just in a different way. 🤠🥸😎
I remember back when I was in high school it was the end of the school year, like literally the last day before summer vacation, and the cafeteria served us peanut butter & jelly with green beans as a side!! It's a combination you never quite forget!
I went school in the 90s in the South West uk and I remember a hotdog in a bun with a scoop of mash, which I used to put in the mash in the bun with the hotdog on top lol
I had so many lunchables back in the early 2000s while in middle school. In high school it was open campus so I'd go out often for good Italian food. (my school was in the little Italy section of my city) so great area to dine in.
Fun fact,.. spaghettios changed the recipe and if you want it to taste like the old days… use a teaspoon of sugar, or a pinch of Splenda… your choice * two pinches of salt, sprinkle of pepper for fun, and it will taste like the old recipe. I always ad a touch of adobo seasoning, but that’s just me. But yeahhh, just add what they took out and you will be much happier with the little O’s we all love ❤
Growing up, my mom made meatloaf often (like once a week cuz it was my dad’s fave lol). My dad would take meatloaf sandwiches to work for his lunch for 2 days after 😂
I was born in the early 90s. Lived in a small town so we didn’t have McDonalds at the schooI. I remember when they would have mashed potatoes with gravy and chicken. Sooo good! With those vanilla/chocolate push pops. I miss the good old days. 😅
Early 2000s for middle school, there was always stuff crust pizza (got sick of it later on) and my all time favorite Tony's galaxy pizza (little round deep dish pizza) on Fridays. High school there were some sandwiches you get custom made as long as the ingredients were available and whatever the culinary class would make that day. Other things as well, but I hardly remember much now. I see Tony's brand pizza at my Safeway, but all I want are those little deep dish pizzas...
I miss Pizza Hut day. They definitely where pushing brand loyalty back in the 90s. We had cake donuts, birthday cake, icecream, smothered pork chops, smoked sausage, mashed potatoes, rolls, pop tarts, cereal, and those colorful ketchups or butter(not exactly sure what it was but it was popular in the 90s)If kids where bad they could get smoked sausages for lunch lol they had to get hot dogs.
My high school had a bunch of choices. We had a pizza and salad line, a full deli line -they even did pretzel rolls, a couple different hot meal lines. And then we had an area for bagels, snacks and desserts. Vending machines w juices and teas and stuff. It was pretty great.
In your 1960s lunch, they did encourage us to eat spinach like Popeye but it was never fresh spinach like that, lol! It was canned spinach we got, there was even a Popeye brand canned spinach. Most of the vegetables we got back in lunches then were canned. Most kids wouldn't known what to make of a pile of spinach leaves.
I was in school in the 60s and the food was fabulous. I don't really remember pizza until the 70s though. I know no school lunch I've ever had looked as bad as what y'all ate here 😆 My kids were in school in the 90s and just the opposite of this, they had salad bars and all sorts of healthier options. And of course, nugs 😄
The way you did 90s elementary/middle school food dirty. We had the best sloppy joe's, and those amazing, rectangle pizzas with the tiny, square pepporonis...Bomb... But you showed us getting McDonald's in the 90s... Smh lol Editing: Because I also grew up in California in the 90s, and we definitely did not get soda as an option, ever lol. Not until high school, which was 2000+ and you had to pay extra for it.
When I was in middle school (2002-2006) Fiesta pizza was the thing to have cause it came with nachos and cheese sauce. In high school burritos were a popular item as well. Cool video guys 👍
I went to school in Minneapolis Minnesota in the 50s and 60s and we had home cooking in school. We had hamburger or turkeys gravy over mash potatoes, cake, fresh fruit, butter bread or peanut butter bread, and chocolate or white milk. I loved school lunches. The only time I took a lunch to school was when my mom made salad dressing cake.
80s lunch was tater tots and square pizza, NOT with triangle pepperoni, the squares, corn, no gatorade, but milk. The 90s the same, except you could only get 2% milk, and it was fries, not tots.
I love LOVE this video!! I never bought school lunches as my mom sent my sis and I with a lunch everyday to work. But when I had any extra change, I would always buy myself some fries cause those little tater bitches SLAPPED!!
If anybody is looking for a video similar to this one that Brennen did back towards the tail end of 2022 type in "Eating the Worst Recipes of 1950... (Can't Believe People Ate This)" into the TH-cam search. He chokes down a cake thick with cream cheese and other ingredients! Obviously finish this video first then head over to that one! 😁
I'm Australian and was born in 1984. Here kids bring lunch from home most of the time and can buy food from the canteen as a treat. Most of my lunches were a sandwich, cordial and fruit. Sometimes I was allowed to buy a meat pie for lunch
I was born in the 80s in Australia started school in the 90s, we brought packed lunches with bread rolls or sandwiches, packet of chips, fruit boxes, and once a week would get a lunch order, which is food from the canteen, I'd normally get a pizza single or lasagne
I would have been having lunch in the 70s and early eighties...always had a metal lunchbox - Partridge Family! I remember warm bologne sandwiches with mayo. Funny...it sat out non refrigerated all morning and we didn't get sick!
I miss early 2000s when I was in middle and high school and I lived off taco salads. We had different lines one was like pizza, one was taco salad, etc. And then a spot where you could buy chicken burgers or nachos
I was in school during the 70s and 80s. What looked like dog food, but tasted so good was beef and gravy over potatoes! Pizza was like sauce and cheese on a piece of bread , I swear! But the “piece de resistance” was peanut butter bars! We were begging people for dimes like we needed a straight up fix to get those bars!! You didn’t go into breakfasts, but Super Donuts were (and still are, I believe) the shiznit!!
Public school in the mid-90s in Philly was like TV dinners and then pizza on Fridays. The private elementary school I attended from 1998-2006 you either brought your own lunch or you could go home if you lived within walking distance. We got out like 12:20 and had to return by 1. Highschool..we had wraps, salads, & sandwiches freshly made along with a hot grab & go section which was usually pizza, fries, chicken, and random stuff on special. I graduated in 2010.
I was in school in the 1950's and 1960's. Memphis TN. Awesome food cooked on site. Beef stew, puffy rolls, pies, cake, choice of chocolate or regular milk. In high school we had BBQ sandwiches with coleslaw and fries. Cinnamon buns with lots of icing. Coca Cola and other bottled beverages. We could even get sweetened iced tea. The list goes on and on. Miss those good meals. My mother grew up during the depression and that was another story. They could not afford school lunches (their mother was in the hospital with an infected arm for nearly a year (pre antibiotics). Their father couldn't find work.

should've said "American school lunches" I would love to see you two do lunches from other countries too!
That would be good to see
Yes that would be interesting
My favorite school lunch was turkey gravy over a scoop of mashed potatoes with a dinner roll. 90’s ❤
Same!
I always liked those days and the chicken patty
Square pizza in the 80s at my school lunch was really good
Yall gotta cut up the spam thin and have it with eggs and rice. Filipino breakfast growing up. 😂

Growing up, my mom made meatloaf often (like once a week cuz it was my dad’s fave lol). My dad would take meatloaf sandwiches to work for his lunch for 2 days after 😂
I was born in the early 90s. Lived in a small town so we didn’t have McDonalds at the schooI. I remember when they would have mashed potatoes with gravy and chicken. Sooo good! With those vanilla/chocolate push pops. I miss the good old days. 😅
Corn beef hash on bread with some mustard is the bees knees 😂
Early 2000s for middle school, there was always stuff crust pizza (got sick of it later on) and my all time favorite Tony's galaxy pizza (little round deep dish pizza) on Fridays. High school there were some sandwiches you get custom made as long as the ingredients were available and whatever the culinary class would make that day. Other things as well, but I hardly remember much now.
I see Tony's brand pizza at my Safeway, but all I want are those little deep dish pizzas...
spam is gold to us navajos still to this day, we eat it in potatoes very yummy 😂
Put the spam on a pan, a lil sear it’s fire lol
I miss Pizza Hut day. They definitely where pushing brand loyalty back in the 90s. We had cake donuts, birthday cake, icecream, smothered pork chops, smoked sausage, mashed potatoes, rolls, pop tarts, cereal, and those colorful ketchups or butter(not exactly sure what it was but it was popular in the 90s)If kids where bad they could get smoked sausages for lunch lol they had to get hot dogs.
Love how Brennen just be popping at the camera every video when it starts you should make a complitation of that shit lol
My high school had a bunch of choices. We had a pizza and salad line, a full deli line -they even did pretzel rolls, a couple different hot meal lines. And then we had an area for bagels, snacks and desserts. Vending machines w juices and teas and stuff. It was pretty great.
Be good to see the Taylor bros do this as a series from different countries 😂
I’d love to see school lunches from different countries!
I would definitely be down with that!
Him "I didn't live in the 20's
Me thinking"aren't we currently living in the 20's 😮😮
Never thought of content like this exists, I enjoy watching your videos
School lunches have definitely changed, so glad i graduated 8 years ago.
In your 1960s lunch, they did encourage us to eat spinach like Popeye but it was never fresh spinach like that, lol! It was canned spinach we got, there was even a Popeye brand canned spinach. Most of the vegetables we got back in lunches then were canned. Most kids wouldn't known what to make of a pile of spinach leaves.
Brennen I love the videos, but like... literally every person and their mother has made this video in the last week 😂
Ya and they are all different. Depends on where you're from and who you're research teams are.
I was in school in the 60s and the food was fabulous. I don't really remember pizza until the 70s though. I know no school lunch I've ever had looked as bad as what y'all ate here 😆 My kids were in school in the 90s and just the opposite of this, they had salad bars and all sorts of healthier options. And of course, nugs 😄
In my country, Romania, kids today are getting a little loaf and a milk carton :))))) seeing your video just amazes me
Mid late 2000’s was peak school lunch definitely had more than a lunchable
Meatloaf sandwich with ketchup damn good has to be leftovers cold
The way you did 90s elementary/middle school food dirty. We had the best sloppy joe's, and those amazing, rectangle pizzas with the tiny, square pepporonis...Bomb... But you showed us getting McDonald's in the 90s... Smh lol
Editing: Because I also grew up in California in the 90s, and we definitely did not get soda as an option, ever lol. Not until high school, which was 2000+ and you had to pay extra for it.
When I was in middle school (2002-2006) Fiesta pizza was the thing to have cause it came with nachos and cheese sauce. In high school burritos were a popular item as well. Cool video guys 👍
Mcdonalds fries were best back in the day when they were fried in beef tallow.
Mexican Jambalaya/ Frito Pie gang where ya at?
I went to school in Minneapolis Minnesota in the 50s and 60s and we had home cooking in school. We had hamburger or turkeys gravy over mash potatoes, cake, fresh fruit, butter bread or peanut butter bread, and chocolate or white milk. I loved school lunches. The only time I took a lunch to school was when my mom made salad dressing cake.
80s lunch was tater tots and square pizza, NOT with triangle pepperoni, the squares, corn, no gatorade, but milk. The 90s the same, except you could only get 2% milk, and it was fries, not tots.
"Is😂 that an olive in there?" Sheesh!
In the 80s the cafeteria ladies made such delicious food. Everything was so good
I grew up in the 80's we never got Gatorade. It was milk or chocolate milk... also the school pizza was fire!! I miss it.
I absolutely love your guys videos. Please don’t stop posting. 🙏🏽❤️
I love LOVE this video!! I never bought school lunches as my mom sent my sis and I with a lunch everyday to work. But when I had any extra change, I would always buy myself some fries cause those little tater bitches SLAPPED!!
If anybody is looking for a video similar to this one that Brennen did back towards the tail end of 2022 type in "Eating the Worst Recipes of 1950... (Can't Believe People Ate This)" into the TH-cam search. He chokes down a cake thick with cream cheese and other ingredients! Obviously finish this video first then head over to that one! 😁
What were yall served at school for lunch??
I was born in The 1980’s
I'm Australian and was born in 1984. Here kids bring lunch from home most of the time and can buy food from the canteen as a treat. Most of my lunches were a sandwich, cordial and fruit. Sometimes I was allowed to buy a meat pie for lunch
uncrustables !! my fav thing ever
I was born in the 80s in Australia started school in the 90s, we brought packed lunches with bread rolls or sandwiches, packet of chips, fruit boxes, and once a week would get a lunch order, which is food from the canteen, I'd normally get a pizza single or lasagne
I would have been having lunch in the 70s and early eighties...always had a metal lunchbox - Partridge Family! I remember warm bologne sandwiches with mayo. Funny...it sat out non refrigerated all morning and we didn't get sick!
I miss early 2000s when I was in middle and high school and I lived off taco salads. We had different lines one was like pizza, one was taco salad, etc. And then a spot where you could buy chicken burgers or nachos
I love spam to this day a spam and cheese sammie is one of my favs .
I was in school during the 70s and 80s. What looked like dog food, but tasted so good was beef and gravy over potatoes! Pizza was like sauce and cheese on a piece of bread , I swear! But the “piece de resistance” was peanut butter bars! We were begging people for dimes like we needed a straight up fix to get those bars!! You didn’t go into breakfasts, but Super Donuts were (and still are, I believe) the shiznit!!
Not sure why you're not familiar with rice pudding. Arroz con leche is delicious!!
My dad talks about the 80s lunches being so good🤣
This video was very good! Thank you for all your hard work.
Public school in the mid-90s in Philly was like TV dinners and then pizza on Fridays.
The private elementary school I attended from 1998-2006 you either brought your own lunch or you could go home if you lived within walking distance. We got out like 12:20 and had to return by 1.
Highschool..we had wraps, salads, & sandwiches freshly made along with a hot grab & go section which was usually pizza, fries, chicken, and random stuff on special. I graduated in 2010.
